  3. How to disable fake surveys offerring "discounted" offers as prizes

    Thank you for your reply.

    I am still lost but here goes:

    • Only known “change” was starting to use Edge browser (which came with new Asus in May) in addition to Firefox. No earlier problem with new or old PC prior to late June.

    • New PC came with Kaspersky with which I am uncertain after the contract period.

    • Ads appear when opening email messages ( which are genuine) and must be deleted before continuing with the email. Sites are those I have visited for years.

    • Below are samples of the ads and where possible their urls

    • Only steps taken are to seek help and direct profanity toward whomever sends this trash

    Any suggestions welcomed and thank you,

    John Shiels

    old email addresses

    Thank you for updating me HA.111

    Here is the step to remove that old email address.

    Start typing an email address into the “To” field. As soon as you see the old email address being recommended as one of the potential candidates, use the down arrow key to scroll through the list of suggestions. Once you highlight the old email address, type the delete key. In many cases, this will actually remove the entry not only from the current list of suggestions but from future suggestions as well. You may even find that as you mouse over the drop-down list the highlighted item will have an “x” to explicitly allow you to delete it.

    Just do this step and your good to go.

    Continue to have an escellent day HA.111

    Best regards,
